Set on 5.8 north-facing acres, this solid 1989 brick and tile home announces its intentions from the moment you pull up. Verandahs wrap the building, gardens frame it, and beyond them – paddocks, stables, and big sky. Grab a coffee, step out onto the deck, and count the magpies. Can morning be more perfect?
Inside, the layout does exactly what a family home should. A tiled entry leads into a generous open-plan kitchen and meals area – the kind of kitchen where someone always ends up perched at the bench. There’s excellent bench space here, good storage, a built-in pantry, and an electric cooktop and oven that gets the job done.
The carpeted formal lounge and dining room wrap around from the front entry to the kitchen, and a slow-combustion fireplace anchors the family room on winter evenings. When summer arrives, a sliding door opens onto a covered patio cocooned in greenery – a shady pocket with irresistible appeal year-round.
The main bedroom sits at the front of the plan, well separated from the rest of the house. Carpet, a walk-in robe, an ensuite with shower, vanity, and WC – it’s a proper retreat. A junior wing off the open plan includes two further bedrooms with built-in robes, a family bathroom with a tub, shower, and vanity, plus a walk-through laundry and a separate WC.
The bones of a serious equestrian or rural lifestyle are already in place. The equestrian setup comprises three-stall stables with walk-out yards, a tack room, a wash-down bay and a feed store. Beyond the stables are five watered paddocks – three with shelter access and a full-sized arena. The bonus to this rare lot – the property is fully licensed and operates under an approved management plan, permitting to keep up to seven horses in accordance with council guidelines. The bore has a brand-new pump. Zoned reticulation keeps the gardens alive without fuss. The 12 × 6 m powered workshop with drive-in doors, for plenty of garden storage or tinkering projects.
Hovea sits at the edge of John Forrest National Park, with Glen Forrest and Mundaring Village within easy reach. Perth CBD is an easy commute, as is the Perth Airport, making FIFO and interstate travel a breeze. The Hills have long attracted families who want their children to grow up with space, fresh air, and a community that still knows its neighbours.
